Money is a very difficult part of therapy. I've heard that even our Ts do not enjoy talking about the money aspect of the relationship.
Lately, I've been having a lot of financial difficulty.
I recently emailed my T that I need to cut our number of sessions in half. I'm sure she and I will talk about it tomorrow. I sure hopes she understands. I'm actually thinking about getting a 2nd job, basically so I can pay my T. I pay out of pocket. But in January, I'll be able to pay a whole lot less. For right now, it sucks. I'm not making as much money as I was when I first started with my T.
Love,
Jay
